Traf Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Superb tonight. Wasn't pretty at all and we're still missing too many chances, but we defended like lions tonight when needed. Massive performance under the circumstances. UTFW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianovit Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Absolutely Traf a wonderful team performance though I thought Gethin Jones was exceptional. Tonight`s events did little for my stress levels, fingers nails, blood pressure or Liver function. Av it !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IE does well at spotting weaknesses so I think he’ll be saying just that He didn't spot Crellins as quick as me. 🤗 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just kick them straight out now! I've thought for a while that it's hardly an advantage and a long punt from the opposition goalkeeper suits us better, wonder how many miles Santos and John the Baptiste have done jogging up and legging it back all season and never got near an header.?

Eddie Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 There was one block from Jones with about 5 minutes to go where I’d already resigned myself to them equalising it looked that certain - he came from nowhere. I know John gets a lot of the plaudits, and rightly so because he’s better than this league, but Jones’ improvement from the start of the season and his form since he settled at right back has been top draw. You almost forget he was one of the ‘originals’. To be fair to the rest of them, there were some brilliant blocks, last ditch tackles and covering runs etc. from them all (Santos was a man possessed in the last 10 especially) but I just think Jones goes under the radar a bit and he’s been fantastic.

When Brockbank went out injured I feared for us, first couple of games Jones looked a little shaky but he’s gone about his business and just been solid.

Gonk Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Delfuonso had a cracking block on the edge of his own 18 yard box, just got his body in there in a 'not a fucking chance you're getting past me sunshine' kind of way great to see from an attacking player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its something we need to improve on, obviously not part of our game this season. We rarely beat the first defender, it was something I hoped Madison could provide but it hasn't happened.

waffer cup 07 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I thought their centre back and goalie did a great job of letting the ball run passed them to allow Isgrove to score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Kieran Lee has had a bit of a mare in front of goal recently, including tackling Doyle last night, but that last second run across the box creates that gap for Isgrove to curl it in. I suspect a Doyle a tap in was the intention, but they all count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect a Doyle a tap in was the intention, but they all count. He has but it is his movement and reading of the game that means he keeps getting in those positions in the first place which is a good thing, just needs to keep practicing in training. We are clearly starting to create more clear cut chances in and around the box, which was a criticism from some a while back, now it is just finishing them off which is stopping us running away with games. I think it will come before the season is done. The next piece is then set pieces which are woeful, but probably too big a change for this season,so as someone else said carry on for now. But I would like to see a marked improvement next season, this may need to come from recruitment though. Must say Isgrove over the last few weeks has really grown on me, he isn't the best but he is a battler and gives his all and never seems to give up, adding a couple of crucial goals as well recently.

DazBob Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Isgrove has definitely been an unsung hero in this fantastic run we're on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 14, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted April 14, 2021 I'm the same with Isgrove, I've not been much of a fan of his but from around Bradford onwards he's played much better and had his best game in a Bolton shirt last night. Great timing too at the business end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I think Isgrove suffered earlier by moving in and out of the team, but his workrate is tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
